The M2CS is a bog standard M2C with some carbon fiber accessories tacked on. Oooooo.

I can see how someone would think that - but many folks who have the M3/4CS talk about how the entire package has been dialed up, and how the overall effect is a much more focused car.
CanAutM3 is a good example of someone with experience with both (I believe he had a base M4 before he got the CS). I would check out some of his posts for detailed perspectives on how the CS is much more than how you're describing it.
He's also very technical in those descriptions and comments, which lends a lot of weight (in my book, anyway) that he's got a good point. I don't see the M2CS as an unworthy bearer of the CS badge...rather, I think BMW is pricing the car higher than is necessary to move them. It's too bad they didn't come in at the 75K mark, and make as many as people wanted.
